Living with Anteaters

Climb Ori

Pua wants carried home
Yeah that's right. She doesn't like walking on the floor.

What do you want?
Don't bother me unless you have cheese.

Sleeping Ori

March 5th

Ori is sleeping in the closet today. She and aurora were jostling for position in the house quite a bit yesterday too. Well, I'm not making a bigger one. Ya coulda used that plastic house it was nice and roomy.

The last washing was not so good for the house.

So mom and grampa built the closet monsters a bigger house even though she said she wouldn't. The pee pad house was kinda mangled after the last washing and they slept in the closet instead. She kinda said the wrong size so it's 3" longer now. It's a wood and pvc frame with a comforter wrapped around. She can maybe make a lining that straps in if they insist but hoping this works then she can just wash and change the comforters as needed.

We need more cheese

Ori sniffing the scale
Most tamandua only lift their tails when running around excited. Ori keeps hers up just walking around or even stopped sniffing things out of pride.

Are you stealing my treats?

Ori checks out the new hut

Not so sure yet

Thinking it over

Not so sure of these bears in the cave

Checking out the structure

Testing the supports

Seems to be built okay

Testing the foundation

Foundation seems good

Pause for an ear scratch

I think I like it.
I think all three of them peed in it, the blanket was soaked this morning. However Ori did manage to collapse it a few hours later and A and O are sleeping in the closet. We have added more supports and it should hold up now.

Ori seems to love the new house but Aurora didn't and Ori wants to stay with her mom so they slept in the closet. I gutted and disassembled the pee pad house and used it for a lining. Maybe Aurora will like the familiar inside. If Ori doesn't destroy it. I just tied it on the frame for now.

Ori got up went in the hut and ripped down the lining then left. Darn Ori. I just wrapped it around the outside for now at least it will be a bit more homey.

ORi and Aurora are in the hut playing! I thought Ori was just freaking out till I saw Aurora was in there too.

I found the others in the hut. All three playing inside, yay! ~ Pua

So they slept in the closet even though the house was good to play in. The pad was soaked. Hmm stop using it as an outhouse and maybe it would be comfy to sleep.
